Tangentially related, but the fox game show “1% club” is, perhaps unintentionally, a fascinating demonstration of how vastly different people think through logic problems.

The premise is the contestants go through a series of questions already asked to a sample of Americans and progress in order of how “difficult” they are based on how many got them wrong.

The interesting part comes when there can be a significant gap in what I perceive the difficulty to be between questions. Sometimes I may have trouble with an “easy” one but get a significantly “tougher” one no problem.

It seems like lunacy to me, but all it really means most times is the format or mechanics of the logic needed for the answer is just more natural to me than the majority of the sample.

Loudly losing

Yeah?

Hands. It’s just to the right and kinda defeats the purpose if you ask me. Especially with the other good option removed as well.

People pay good money for this at present. Is this future offering it for free? Cuz I’m in.

Fantastic source. Doing better journalism and research than pros over here. Thank you.

Is there any source on this “cover fire” incident other than this guy spinning yarn? Cuz that sounds outlandish even in 1992 and contrary to actual training. Marines have known how to enter a building for a while.

My corn cream colony is stirring. Please stop.

I’m with you. This viral moment never made sense to me cuz I can never see anything else even with my wildest imagination.

Only thing that’s got me better is the beans story.

chunes@lemmy.world ‘s reign of terror is just beginning.

Love these, thanks as always.

Played a few demos at Next Fest, mostly games I’d been following for a bit. Was most impressed by Jump Ship. It’s in a very solid place getting ready to head into early access. I feel like they’ll use that to mostly fill out content because the bones are fantastic. And that’s not to say it’s lacking content anyway. It is a large demo. And it should be more solo friendly than Firebreak is reported to be.

On that note, I encourage you to temper expectations for Firebreak and utilize a game pass service to play it if you have one vs buy. I’m a Control fan, but also a big coop shooter fan (come play Darktide with me), and Firebreak did not impress when I played the closed tech test. There’s nothing fundamentally wrong with it, but it was pretty bland for the genre and I don’t think there’s supposed to be a lot of lore development for the remedyverse. Solo is also something they are explicitly not balancing the game for. So I’d encourage not buying right away if that’s your plan for it.

I’m not trying to be a dick here, just confused. But is this post indicating that you’re old enough and smart enough to know how to use the fediverse but didn’t know that turtles turtle?

Also, like tisktisk@piefed.social indicated, I get results for anything but the animal when I search “turtle mode”. Graphics, EV modes, and even flipping a quadcopter drone, but nothing about neck mechanics in a shelled amphibian.

Does pop-up headlights mean the old kind that mechanically raise when turned on? I was fully unaware of safety concerns and govt regs against them and just assumed they were too costly and overly complex for manufacturers to keep doing. And I still see them in some sporty models.

Just guys beating dudes

Bout to break the X button on my controller.
